I want to insert an ornament between the Part number and the Part title with psvectorian as explained in a previous question :

Styling Part page with psvectorian

Unfortunatly, it seems that there is a problem with the ornament I had chosen (which is 88) and the ornament goes on the following page of the part (and it is not centered), and not between the part number and the part title. Where is the mistake ? Perhaps I need to use pgfornament ?

This is my code :

\documentclass[symmetric,justified,marginals=raggedouter]{tufte-book}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{psvectorian}
\renewcommand\partheadmidvskip{%
  \par\nobreak\vspace*{\baselineskip}%
  \psvectorian[height=0.2cm]{88}%
  \par\nobreak\vspace*{\baselineskip}%
}
\begin{document}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\begin{fullwidth}
\part{La Pi\`{e}ce d'Orgue \mbox{en \textit{r\'e} majeur} BWV 532}
\psvectorian[height=0.2cm]{88}
\end{fullwidth}
\end{document}

  • Do you want to use tufte-book as documentclass or scrbook? The related question redefines the \partheadmidvskip command which does not exist for tufte-book, so you need another approach there. It should not even compile (i.e., give an error message). Maybe you compile with nonstopmode or something that ignores errors? In any case, the ornament seems to be coming from the second \psvectorian command (3rd line from the end in your code), that is indeed after the title and not centered. – Marijn May 22 '20 at 19:41

This should work:

\documentclass[symmetric,justified,marginals=raggedouter]{tufte-book}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{psvectorian}
\usepackage{auto-pst-pdf} % to use pstricks with pdflatex

\makeatletter
\def\H@old@part[#1]#2{%
    \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >-2\relax
      \refstepcounter{part}%
      \addcontentsline{toc}{part}{\thepart\hspace{1em}#1}%
    \else
      \addcontentsline{toc}{part}{#1}%
    \fi
    \markboth{}{}%
    {%
     \begin{fullwidth}%
     \centering
     \interlinepenalty \@M
     \normalfont
     \ifnum \c@secnumdepth >-2\relax
       \huge\bfseries \partname\nobreakspace\thepart
       \par
       \vskip 10\p@
       \psvectorian[height=0.2cm]{88}\par
       \vskip 10\p@
     \fi
     \Huge \bfseries #2\par
     \end{fullwidth}%
    }%
    \@endpart}

% compact form (without fullwidth environment)
%\usepackage{xpatch}
%\xpatchcmd\H@old@part
%  {\vskip 20\p@}
%  {%
%    \vskip 10\p@
%    \psvectorian[height=0.2cm]{88}\par
%    \vskip 10\p@
%  }
%  {}{\fail}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
\part{La Pi\`{e}ce d'Orgue \mbox{en \textit{r\'e} majeur} BWV 532}
\end{document}

There should be better solution, only because this one is more clear to me.

  • As I use XeLateX, I don't need the following line in your code: \usepackage{auto-pst-pdf} , and it works ! Thanks ! – Phil8544 May 23 '20 at 12:15
